Finally a film with a female lead! Did Jack Hill subvert the gender stereotypes of the genre with his 1982 film "Sorceress"? Did the producers of Dune (1984) screw this movie over by stealing its lighting!? The answer is probably no on all accounts, but there's only one way to find out!

Picture this, Arnold Schwarzenegger's "Conan the Barbarian"...but there are two of him!! It's "The Barbarians," and no, it's not starring fraternal twins Will and Chase. It features 1987's biggest boys, Peter and Paul David. Can these brothers act? Of course not! Are they the buffest men you've ever laid your eyes on? Listen and find out!    Check out poster and bingo as per usual! https://www.instagram.com/p/C6UAOAar2Bw/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

The sequel to everybody's favorite 1982 film, The Sword and the Sorcerer, came out in...2010!?! Given 38 years to perfect his craft, and the acting talents of Kevin Sorbo, did director Albert Pyun end up creating the worst movie of all time!?! Only one to find out!   Bingo and poster (it's very funny) on the gram as usual! https://www.instagram.com/p/C5gddp4rVS3/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Sorta Sorcery turns ten this week as the boys discuss Albert Pyun's tragic contribution to the genre. What could be more Sword and Sorcery than a movie called The Sword and the Sorcerer (we're getting to Conan be patient)? So a wise-cracking rogue with a three-pronged sword, E.T.'s dark twin, and the historical Oliver Cromwell walk into a bar...what happens next? Listen and find out now!

This week the boys return to the illustrious Ator series! Will our hero Ator live happily ever after with his sister-wife? Does the dastardly Griba have a son? Is Miles O'Keeffe's skirt even shorter than before? Find out today in Joe D'Amato's second shot at greatness, Ator 2 - The Blade Master.    Check out this week's poster on the gram! https://www.instagram.com/p/C3gVeGvLv_d/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

That's right Björkserkers, this week we're covering Robert Eggers' 2022 film The Northman. It's like Hamlet but with more blood, Vikings, magic swords, and Icelandic singer-songwriter Björk!

Yuletidings friends! This holiday season the boys have something special for you, it's an adaptation of ye olde Sword & Sorcery myth, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight! And we know what you're thinking, it's not the A24 film, oh no, it is the 1984 loose retelling directed by Stephen Weeks, Sword of the Valiant: The Legend of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. Sean Connery, Miles O'Keeffe, and a good laugh are first on our list this year!

Creamboys rise! The day has finally come to cover the most quintessential sword and sorcery film....of the 2010s. It's  Conan the Barbarian (2011) starring Arnold Schwarzenegger's spiritual successor, Jason Momoa. Did this movie lose so much money at the box office that it single-handedly killed the sword and sorcery genre in film!? Could it be as bad as that (yes)!?!? Listen now to find out. Next week is part 1 of the Holiday Special: Sword of the Valient: The Legend of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (1984)!

What is a Nibelungen you ask? Well, it's one of the little guys who live in the land of mist in Fritz Lang's 1924 cinematic retelling of the 1200 AD epic poem Nibelungenlied. Witness the first dragon ever to grace the screen and marvel at the wordless screams of this genre-defining silent film as the boys finally review a technically good movie on this week of Sorta Sorcery.    Check out the poster and bingo on the gram! https://www.instagram.com/p/C0sJVUsLBaD/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

The original step-sister storyline! Join the boys for a raucous and, at times, incoherent, discussion of the raucous and mostly incoherent film Ator The Fighting Eagle. Why is the film called that?
